    17 year old almost out of high school, uncertain future

    INTRO 
    You're definitely right on this one. I guess the basis behind my statement was that if you absorb all pertinent information here, you will learn to GO DO, instead of wasting time on the internet. This is hardly a waste of time, but you're right. Not sure why a forum like this even has an "off...

    Help Please: What are Your Biggest Challenges?

    MINDSET 
    Biggest challenges? 1. Sticking to an idea. My head is constantly spinning with new ideas. I'll go great guns on them for 2 weeks, then they fizzle out. I probably have 6 or 7 "business ideas" in the works anywhere from contacting suppliers, making a website, marketing the current...

    Do You Even Respond? Worst Luck Finding Suppliers Online

    I've currently got a guy that's so eager to talk to me, that he sends several emails a day. Not in a harassing manner either, its more like "I am currently at my home for lunch break, but I will be back in the office in an hour" type things. This guy is definitely getting my business.

    Pictures look better, but yes watch the copyright issues. I would use that 2nd picture as the main one instead since it looks nice. As for the description, try to really sell this product to a first time viewer. Ask questions. How long do your current tea-light candles last? Our G12...

    Something strange I've noticed about entrepreneurs...

    I think I will actually fire up FB again because of this. I haven't had one for almost 3 years, and my life has been a lot less cluttered and my productivity on a computer has multiplied exponentially. I hate what the 99% use it for, but I would love this. Thank you Allen!

    First picture looks alright to me but the 2nd two need work. Definitely show how tall they are, and I'd even do a "candle light dinner" type setting using them.

    IDEA 
    Seriously. The Gloss white/black pair needs to be in my hands ASAP. Can't even imagine how excited you are to have created these bad boys yourself. Also, you scored BIG TIME on the domain name. I can envision a marketing video where people are saying "why do I wear 8?" over and over again...

    I encountered this yesterday when emailing suppliers. I used a domain I was thinking about buying in case I do, but it has not been purchased yet so they won't see anything if they Google it. I'm not sure how much there is to worry about though... All the products I've inquired about are...
